I wouldnโ€™t recommend doing a walk-in for a manicure and pedicure here. The pedicure was well done, but the full set felt rushed and unprofessional. The technician stopped multiple times during the process, and I had to point out several nails she had missed. I wish she had just been upfront about not having enough timeโ€”I would have opted for regular polish on my natural nails instead. The total came to $105, and I added a $7 tip, but it felt uncomfortable as she stood and watched while I tipped.

I had an amazing experience here I got a set of acrylic nails with a detailed design, and they absolutely exceeded my expectations. The nail tech went above and beyond to make sure every detail was perfect, and the end result was stunning. Not only was the quality top-tier, but they were also incredibly quick and efficient without sacrificing precision. The entire experience was smooth, and I love everything about this place. Definitely my go-to nail salon!
